internet memes that you wish were dead

[EpicPhailure]

But that's the only thing that makes Portal awesome D:

What!?

Most of the funny GlaDOS dialogue after the 'official' levels (that is, the ones before you try to destroy GlaDOS) comes from the reference to the promised cake. I.E.: "Weeee are pleased that you made it through the final challenge where we pretended we were going to murder you. We are very very happy for your success. We are throwing a party in honor of your tremendous success. Place the device on the ground, then lie on your stomach with your arms at your sides. A party associate will arrive shortly to collect you for your party. Make no further attempt to leave the testing area. Assume the 'Party Escort Submission Position' or you will miss the party."

[DarkBlade325]

You know, I think I'm the only one who ever tried to assume the Party Escort Submission Position. What the !@#$ game- if you want me to, then something should happen when I do!

Well, back on topic.

You missed my point. I meant "What!?" as in, "What the hell!? There's plenty more than the cake that makes the game awesome!" I know the cake referrences are funny, but the parts that are not about the cake are also really great. So your statement that it is the ONLY thing that makes Portal awesome is just wrong. (Or it's your opinion and I disagree with it...)

Oh right, the Companion Cube.

I think that Lingus is referring to its amazing gameplay, physics engine, and story.

In Soviet Russia internet memes wish you were dead...

In Soviet Russia internet memes wish you were dead...

I gotta calm down with these. But god I can't resist some of the shit you guys say.

[Snakeman]

All of them, like most of you said.

Except for the few that are fun to use on people as a form of trolling, like "COOL STORY BRO" and "you mad?"

Gotta love my trolling.

(And "DAT ASS" is just !@#$ing perfect, because it's barely ever used but I always laugh at it.)

And hate the player, don't hate the game. Memes were alright until some fags decided to break two very important rules and next thing you know, it's all mainstream and the media has overhyped what were considered to be some very good jokes, and then the cycle began. Soon enough, when jokes are overused, they're no longer funny. Memes are the same way. The memes themselves are typically okay. It's not until they're spammed by both annoying !@#$tards and the hilarious failure that is the mass media, that makes them gayer than a three-pronged dildo. If it wasn't for dumbasses breaking those two rules in particular, memes wouldn't be as hated as they are today and would actually still be funny. Maybe.

[Lingus]

Well, I'm sure some were funny originally, but you have to admit some are just plain ridiculous. Not even looking at the fact that they're overused. Some memes are just dumb and unfunny.

Btw, what 2 rules are you referring to?

[sly 3 4 me]

Makes it sound like he is referring to the rule of having been "spammed by both annoying !@#$tards and the hilarious failure that is the mass media". My interpretation, but it looks like he meant that by saying "Those rules" as though they were the reason prior to stating it. I like the ones that are always funny to view, but when they are spammed, or generally abused(Stupid variations) it gets out of hand to the point of hating them. Atleast for me.

[Cactuscat222]

Probably the rules of <Removed at Monsieur Snakeman's Request>, or more so, the first 2 rules - which are the same rules as the first two in Fight Club if you have seen the movie or read the book. I won't say the rules, in order to follow the rules.

[Snakeman]

Probably the rules of <DISREGARD THIS, I LIKE TO FOLLOW RULES>, or more so, the first 2 rules - which are the same rules as the first two in Fight Club if you have seen the movie or read the book. I won't say the rules, in order to follow the rules.

Coming from that website, there was made a list of rules deemed "rules of the internet". They weren't enforced, but they were given as a code to live by.

Rules 1 and 2 clearly state "Do not talk about <removed>." (<removed> being the imageboard on that particular website that spawns a good amount of most of these memes.)

Now, obviously, to break rules 1 and 2 would mean to go off and tell others about that particular website and imageboard. Doing so causes the good old chain reaction of friends-telling-friends and soon it will be overpopulated with randomass people. Now, the website is, and always will be, a website that is deemed as for adults only (there's a rule stating that you must be 18 to browse, if not, you must leave immediately. This rule's enforced quite well, if you so much as mention you're underage, you can be reported and banned.). But, it's oh-so-easy to lie about your age on the internet, and so that's what most people did.

Now as we all know, teenagers can be the most immature losers ever. (I know, therefore I am.) So if you took a quite large group of these brats and threw them all in a website where there can be quite some good comedy, the content will spread amongst them and be repeated over and over and over.

This is what killed memes, and, in the end, this website's imageboard in particular (I'm not naming this because it's polluted with enough stupid things already). After being exposed to the general public via a few individuals breaking rules 1 and 2, they've spreaded and become so overused and popular that they're just not even funny anymore.

If any of you decide to explore this mentioned website (and I HIGHLY advise you don't, there is some graphic content on there. No, I will not tell any of you what it is. I'm one of the few that follow the rules.), and notice some funny memes, keep them disclosed. If you decide to use them and people go "what's that from", please remember rules 1 and 2. Just say it's an inside joke. Memes are much better when only you and a few certain others know of them. Exposing them to the public kills off the joke.

tl;dr: Don't go off telling people where memes originate from or what they are. Keep them an inside joke amongst those who already know and don't overdo them.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go hunt for Candlejack. I hear he's quite the stu

Powerthirst [No idea, mustn't be a popular one then.]
Courage Wolf [Overused. Very few of them are actually funny.]
The Game(Also, you just lost) [!@#$ this one to hell, people yell it in my school all the time. It's gay as !@#$.]

Bros/Bromance [Broseidon, king of the Brocean. This one is amazing as well.]
Disregard Females, Aquire Currency [JOSEPH DUCREUX, HOW CAN YOU HATE SUCH A MAN?!]
Rick rolls/Russian Rick rolls [Overused, I'll agree with you on this one.]

Pirates vs Ninjas [These were overhyped too. Ninjas and pirates aren't even all that amazing considering today's heroes.]
Snakes on a Plane [Overused, no longer funny.]
????? Profit [Overused, rarely there are funny ones.]

I had to put my two cents in. Also:


JOSEPH DUCREUX = LEGEND. I also particularly enjoy today's slang being translated into Old English, e.g. "TO THINE WINDOW, TO THINE WALL, TILL THINE PERSPERATION DESCENDS FROM THINE GENITALIA"

[Titan]

Trust me

I like the miracles song, but its just so overused.
The disregard females, aquire currency one isn't around too much anymore, but used to be overused.
Not gonna lie though, the one I hate more than anything is probably "Cool story, bro".
